Platform installation

Once the platform is installed, remember to update the software versions using the system command:

# yum update

Then reboot your platform to take the new system packs into account if necessary. Complete the installation using the Centreon web interface.

Deploy your first Plugin Packs

When you install Centreon 3.4, connect to the Centreon web interface and go to the “Administration > Extensions > Modules” menu. There are two modules available at installation time, click on the icon on the right (in the “Actions” column) to install them.

Go to the “Configuration > Plugin pack” menu, the list of Plugin packs is displayed. The ones that are available when Centreon 3.4 is installed are displayed.

Here we’re going to deploy Cisco hardware monitoring (router, switch, etc.), but the procedure is the same for all Plugin Packs.

The Plugin Pack description is displayed. Click on the installation icon to add this Plugin Pack to your platform:

A pop-up tells you to install an additional dependency, validate it:

The pack now shows as installed in the Plugin Pack manager.

A deployment guide appears on the Plugin Pack icon, click on it to access the procedure and follow the deployment instructions.
